Difficult to give you any help, you haven't give any information on what went wrong.
Try posting what happened, if you have matching imei under battery to phone info and which modem version you flashed last.
You do have efs backup, right?

Does your IMEI match the one under the battery .
If not restore your backed up EFS folder .
Fail to backup its a service centre paid for repair .
Samsung Galaxy S3 General Sticky Roll-Up Thread ***Stickies found here!
If imei and serial number are not corrupted. Check your APN settings. You may want to flash stock rom to see if that works. Backing up efs folder highly recommended.

Try Ariza patch. Search XDA and downlowd apk. You may need to install the patch every time you update the software.

Dial *#06# in your phone's dailer and if your IMEI matches the IMEI on your phone's box or under battery then its something else.
If it says something like 0049xxxx or null or 0000... Your IMEI is corrupted.
In the case of corrupted IMEI you must have a backup of your EFS folder in order to restore it. If you have backed up your EFS then you're safe. If not.... Only Samsung can fix it for you, provided you have warranty left.
I had the same problem.. my IMEI changed to 0049xxxxxx by installing Custom Rom. Got it fixed for free by Samsung PM me if you want to know how.

Hi guys, well i managed to somehow ****up my efs folder and it now says no baseband and imei/imeid.
I have searched and searched for but closes thing i was able to find was using nv writer to write my old imei back onto my phone. The problem is when I *#7284# I have no option to choose DM + ADB + <cant remember other option> I only have PDA or MODEM option.

Can you try kTool?
K-tool does not work, which is why Prodigy got me to type a command line in the terminal which backed up my EFS folder manually. Now I have an EFS.IMG This is why i put up the THread Because I knew it was soon someone will be bound to stuff up there EFS.. Which is WHY WE ALL NEED TO BACK UP OUR EFS ASAP before we start modding
But as for recovery its hopeless? Can a box be used to restore the imei? Anyway i can write my imei using nvwriter after somehow solving the problem of not being able to put my phone into diagnostics mode?
Argh! I am going insane, this is looking like a one dear mistake!
I had the exact same problem. Tried MANY things, with no luck. If you got yours from Optus less than 30 days, they will give you a brand new replacement phone .
Try to install a stock rom like 4.0.4... that worked for me on a S1 with the same problem and fixed it!

I have the same issue although it happened to me when I flashed a rom to ROOT my device and I didn't back up the EFS, now it doesn't read the SIM/Network and my Baseband & IMEI are Unknown.
I have tried re-installing the stock firmware etc but still no success...
Anyone have any suggestions?? Or at least how I can update my device status back to normal a pose to 'Modified'.. This was I could maybe submit it through warranty repair.. I have tried to reset my binary count with triangle away (before unrooting) but no success as.. The only thing i've managed to be able to do is unroot my device..
Please help!
Thanks...:fingers-crossed:
if you dont mind about the reading , u can still use your phone flawlessly.. and try the trick "oh im not sure , oh i dont know" and get one replace or u will need jtag i guess.. or maybe ( not sure if it work ) get someone else backup efs and find a way to put your imei in and push it back to your device.. and then repeat same procedure with your original imei ... if u cant remember , take a look at your box.. well..i am just suggesting..not sure if it work...
to get rid of modified , go download sammy official release for your telco or country , flash it with odin but the binary counter remains... good luck to u..

I've got mine on the box i got the phone with, i am not sure how i cna inject mine into it. The nv writer doesnt seem to be working as i can put my phone into DM mode.

Would a EFS pro backup.img be ok? or do you want the whole uncompressed folder?
EFS Pro img would be fine (i assume) it's a final shot before i ship it off.
Thanks mate!

I read last night that if you flash the original OTA over your phone it will re write your IMEI number and if Telstra's one is not out just use one from AT&T or Optus etc..
So you can make a back up of your EFS and go from there with re rooting and applying a new baked rom.
Either way if can work or it can not. i see no harm
Anyway here is the EFS taken' just now
you should never share your EFS folder with someone else. Due to the fact each imei is unique.

OP, hope you get it worked out, but this will only cause more trouble than it already has.
Hi guys,
I'm having some problems with my galaxy s3 GT - I9300, it all started when i tried to unlock it via GalaxSim Unlock.
I started the prosses regulary, making a EFS folder back up (the original EFS).
Then i tried with annother sim but it did not get signal.. here is where I mess up.
I make a factory reset and I lost the ORIGINAL EFS back up.
I make another EFS folder back up, but that back up is not the original, is the one that GalaxSim installs.
My IMEI is the same that the one in the box, also my S/N is not 0000..
So.. I'm wondering if you can help me, maybe i can send you my efs folder to see if it is something wrong.
Thank you very much. I hope someone can help me.
PD: my phone was locked to claro URUGUAY. I'm on 4.2.1 stock
a factory reset does not affect your EFS folders, hence it is still your original EFS folder.
not sure if the sim unlock tool touches the EFS folders though.

Ok.. so if galaxsim dos not touch the efs folder, it's the original one.. but i don't know if galaxsim change something or not.
Other thing is that my 3G works, but I can't make any call. It says that I'm not registed in the network
That says wrong IMEI or user has not put network APN settings into phone in most cases .

Thank you for quick response..
I'm gonna try ariza again, but some where i have read that is needed a super wipe.
When I try it, I only installed the .apk but it didn't work..
So, it's needed a diferent rom, a wipe or something else?
Hello I have a big problem, after I installed a new and updated ROM my phone won't work on any carrier, so here's what happened:
1.I had the ROM FoxHound_Sniper_Wolf_LPD_ICS_GSII_By_SnakeS and it worked great until the GPS started failing so I decided it was time for a change (until now the phone was working flawlessly with carriers and such)
2.I first tried to install the ROM ParanoidAndroid 3+ ROM Galaxy S2 but I forgot to do a wipe first and then I wiped the phone and re-installed the ROM and it still didn't work.
3.I installed WanamLite Clean & Fast JB 4.1.2 v14.3 without errors until I tried to turn on data networking (I had my APN setup by then) and it didn't turn on so I tried calling and this would pop up:"Not registered on network".
4.I try to fix the problem by going to network providers and selecting my network provider and it said: "Unable to connect, try later", so I try selecting the automatic setting and it gave me the same error, so I kept pressing the select automatically setting until it said: "Registered on network" so I try to call again and still gives me the same error "Not registered on network".
5.I try to go back to my old ROM (FoxHound_Sniper_Wolf_LPD_ICS_GSII_By_SnakeS) and it still gave me the error "Not registered on network".
6.I also tried some other ROMs: RR_JB_V3.1.3_AOKP_4.2.1_I9100 and RootBox-JB-i9100-V4.1 and the phone still won't work.
7.I go back to the WanamLite Clean & Fast JB 4.1.2 but this time it's v14.6
PS:it says "emergency calls only" in the drop down menu
info:
county: Israel
carrier: Golan Telecom
phone status: I got it unlocked from the company Cellcom
Network mode: GSM/CDMA (Auto mode)
ROM: WanamLite Clean & Fast JB 4.1.2
Galaxy sII GT-1900T

Can anyone help me with this please?

Hey man I tried this fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17587351
and when I did step 3 it was fixed but now I have the generic imei (004999010640000)
all you had to do was checking your IMEI online to see if it was blocked listed.
You now ended up with a generic IMEI.
You followed the first 3 steps right?
Please tell me you backed up the EFS folder.

After having S3 for some months, I decided to update it to 4.3.
So I searched online and saw some tutorials how to root and install costum ROMs.
I read few tutorials to be sure how to do that and after all went good and the ROM installed, One problem has rised: NO SIGNAL!
so I wiped all and installed a ROM STOCK.
After that the signal came back "half way". It's showing signal bars but I can't call to anyone, even after calling to my provider...
I just don't know what to do. Please help

well these tutorial you've read were either very bad or you haven't read them correctly, because probably you missed the important step of the efs backup. see therefor the stickies thread or the thousands of similiar questions here in the q&a.

That is your backup flash with odin
( When you flashed a custom rom it probably backed up your efs some roms backup by default)
I would just backup your efs you have at the moment just in case you have problems flashing. You will then be able to return to how your efs is now even though it is not fully working..
Or try this app >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.hellcat.droiddev.ktool <<
The phone has to bee rotted to use ktool?
I also understand from the link you did about the EFS that there are two types of base bands and if I have an efs backup that I did on V1 baseband so I can't restore it on a v2 baseband, so my conclusion is to get back to 4.1.2... correct me if I am wrong

good that you found efs backup
yes you need root. or you use the recovery philz touch to restore your efs (then you don't need root, but a custom recovery).
well samsung roms based on 4.3 need efs v2, so you have to go back to 4.1.2 to restore your efs v1 backup.
if everything is working again, I would suggest you to use oding to upgrade to 4.3, because then everything should be updated correctly (but keep your efs backup, and make another one, just to be sure)
then you can try out again custom roms based on sammy 4.3
So what is the best option to restore it?
Because before I tried (while 4.3 stock rom was installed) the flash it with Odin but Odin always crashed when I was uploading it to Odin.
With kTool I tried before but when I am clicking on the button it says that it restored but he didn't asked for directory, when do I need to put it?
The same story with phliz, I also tried with this and he don't asks for directory, only asking whan the ending if the file-tar to bin...

Hmm... try installing another EFSv2 modem, then do the /efs copying part again.
Suddenly after so restarts, the IMEI got back
But... The SN now is 0000000000
You'll need to correct the permissions of the files you've copied. Try searching for someone who already did this and duplicate what they did.

Ok,
I tried something new. I flashed a new modem, backed up a full backup and then installed a costum rom 4.3.
the IMEI GOT BACK! And even the SERIAL NUMBER!
But I think the serial number is not good because he has 16 or 17 (I don't remember) digits (numbers and letters).
But still i have signal bars but can't make or receive calls he says: "No registered on network"
For the finalle, I tried ARIZA patch but he Is stuck on 0%...
here I stopped, I really don't know what to do.
Don't use the Ariza patch once you've got your IMEI and SN back. Maybe try flashing a new stock version of Android with a EFSv2 baseband so as to not go through the copying fiasco.

Gus, I really need help.
I was trying 6.0.1. update from 6.0. I made a backup of 6.0 before trying 6.0.1. BUT after flashing 6.0.1 there was no signal and also no network avalible com.phone keep FC. So I've flashed stock firmware for my device. And after that I'm keep getting to bootloop but if I flash custom kernel phone reboot but witnout signal and also there is unknown baseband and no IMEI. I have my S/N and IMEI on piece od paper. I've tried many things on XDA but nothing worked, I also tried to flash ROM with xposed to change IMEI but still no signal........ Im desperate.... Can someone help me please?
How did you upgrade? Do you have a nandroid backup?

Ull need to flash stock with odin or smart switch thats the only way to recover imei or try restoring just the efs partition from the backup u made.
I've tried everything also flashing official firmware and so on, but nothing.... Still no base or IMEI... I don't have EFS backup - I know I'm retard....

Same here (Think we done the same thing with the Marshmallow 6.0.1 leak) I backed up, but the new version of TWRP I have has EFS as a separate option, I never even noticed and never backed it up.
However I Flash with smartswitch, and after reflashing the bootloader with odin and a Root Kernel, I can boot into the device and using root explorer, I CAN see my EFS folder. I deleted the .nv_data.bin files and changed the .nv_data.bak to .nv_data.bin (was an older date) and I now have the network options back but a generic IMEI and can't register on a network.
I feel SO close to getting it up and running, but if smartswitch can't help, not fully anyway, I'm not 100% I can be rescued either.

I've called to my local service center and they said that they will reflash firmware fo 450 CZK (about 17 euros) and It will be done in 1 hour 30 minutes. So I will se what they can do with it. I've tried everything... and right now I don't know what else I can do. But If you figurate out how to fix it let me know Thanks!
Ive also heard that if you flashing each partion one at a time with odin that has fixed it for some

So my progress is that phone can now see networks, but still have srong SN and IMEI and also can't connect to the network...

I got 3 old smartswitch backup and i find a file with the imei and everything , do you think its possible to backup this files ?
You CAN recover your phone with smartswitch, there is an emergency recovery function with a IMEI and SN input option, some users who used the same threat (android 6.0.1) and has lost their efs partition reported that smartswitch worked.
I've done this procedure too for some weeks to recover my phone an everything is working fine.
possibly with root explorer
